Provenance
Hildegaard Neroli haute botanical facial oil features flowers from Citrus Aurantium trees which are sustainably cultivated near the town of Nabeul on the Cap Bon Peninsula of Tunisia. Blossoms are harvested in early April at the tender moment when buds fully unfurl as orange blossoms. Delicate buds are hand-picked, one-by-one — charged with the passion and presence of the farmer. A single blossom has five fleshy white petals tinged with yellow which indicates the presence of essential oil. The trees are treated in accordance with the principles of integrated agriculture, a dynamic and sustainable farming approach. Blossoms are harvested and processed by the same producer, ensuring full traceability of the supply chain.
Hildegaard Olibanum haute botanical facial oil features the highest quality wildcrafted Boswellia Carterii resin from a private Frankincense grove in Somalia. Hildegaard’s Frankincense resin is collected by a third generation family of harvesters using a sustainable tapping technique, which protects the long-term health of the Boswellia Carterii. Resin is distilled into oil by a trusted distillery in Turkey to ensure full traceability of the supply chain. Harvesters preserve the high potency of the resin by respecting the ancient rule that resin may only be harvested if the trees receive rain at the beginning of the year. Following two years of harvest, plants are given one year to rest and regenerate to ensure the survival of the Boswellia Carterii species.
Hildegaard Immortelle haute botanical facial oil features wild Helichrysum Italicum flowers cultivated with organic and sustainable agricultural techniques in the meadows and fields of Serbia. Hildegaard Immortelle possesses a pine and spicy effect with a balsamic and fruity note and delivers energetic sensations. The supply chain of Hildegaard Immortelle involves a long-term partnership with a woman-led producer, ensuring long-term revenue for the farmers and full traceability to local pickers. Hildegaard Immortelle contributes to relaunching the economic activity in one of the oldest cities in the Balkans.
Hildegaard Rose haute botanical facial oil features Rosa Damascena cultivated using sustainable agricultural techniques in the high altitude Isparta-Burdur region of Turkey. High altitude rose bushes produce fewer flowers, but are less susceptible to heat, thus their oil yield is higher and of better quality. Roses are harvested just at the point of opening when dew-kissed buds are densest with oil. Hildegaard Rose possesses a particularly spicy fruity character and tends to induce sensations of joy. Hildegaard’s Rosa Damascena is certified For Life, imparting a positive impact through sustainable agriculture practices, promotion of biodiversity, and respect for human rights.
Experience
Place a drop of the oil into your palm and bring the hands together. Hold the hands over your freshly washed face and breathe.
Observe the diffusion of scent through heat of the skin. (Reading slowly is essential to translate hidden essences, the invisible reality of a plant.)
Ask your face where it would like to be touched. Kiss the face with your hands.When do you experience heightened vitality, the greenness of your own nature? (Observe your connection to the universal qualities. Let yourself be guided.)
